“Drag-and-drives combines the best of both worlds. It also is a very like family-oriented event; everyone helps one another even though they may be competing against another it gives it a ‘small track’ kind of feel to it.”

“I can’t think of a better way to do a trial run of the route for this fall’s Edelbrock Sick 66 event. We will definitely be having an adventure driving back to Missouri.”

In January this year, Mike Finnegan released a video on his YouTube channel, Finnegan’s Garage, on the build of a LS-based 400 cubic inch engine from ACE Racing Engines for big power numbers and a ‘mystery project car.’

Pueblo Motorsports Park, which has seen use for multiple big events, including Rocky Mountain Race Week, put out a statement earlier this afternoon regarding the state of the drag racing schedule for 2024.

“It’s funny to think about this car starting at Pump Gas Drags with twin superchargers and an FE big block. Now it’s all-motor time.”

Featuring 10 classes and north of $35,000 of payouts, The Reunion at Bradenton Motorsports Park (BMP) in Florida took place on April 19th and 20th, with some impressive results!

“I got hooked on drag-and-drives. It's all about driving your stuff. Cars are meant to be used, not idle.”

“The biggest challenge (with a drag-and-drive) is accepting the reality that you may not do as good as you wanted to, and refraining from making stupid tune up decisions so you can make a clean pass and get on the road.”

“I had the traditional small block engine in a ’72 El Camino. It got old, and we wanted to do something different.”

“Drag-and-drive is appealing to me because I believe it’s the ultimate test of man and car; to test the limits of your building and driving capabilities along with others. The community of drag and drives it’s self is a one off for sure.”

A single day drag-and-drive event, all pre-registered rides would meet at the Galleria Mall and take an hour drive to Silver Dollar Motorsports Park in Reynolds, Georgia for competition in four classes.

“It was such an awesome opportunity to be at the reopening of Route 66 Dragway last year. We are coming back with a group of great racers, and we have our sights set on showing all the fans what our street cars can do.”

“We can’t wait to be hanging with and meeting new people and friends again at our next drag-and-drive. Car and hot rod people, I think there’s no better crowd.”

“What a blast. Car ran flawlessly till that point. We see some absolutely stunning scenery and amazing tracks. Got to hang with some of the bestest friends you could ask for, and made so many more memories.”

“Sick Summer 2023 was our first and only Drag-and-Drive, and was the best time I've had with the car in the 32 years i have had the car.”

The 2009 Cadillac CTS-V of Chris Conway established the new record mark for an Independent Rear Suspension (IRS) equipped Caddy with a 7.15 pass one week ago, but Conway wanted more.

“The drives are amazing, the people are awesome, every hotel ends up being a car show, and the new tracks are really my favorite part.”

“The original appeal (of a drag-and-drive) was really just the challenge, and it still is no question. But after competing in two now, I really just love the people and friendships you make along the way. We also get to stop at some pretty cool places that I otherwise probably would've never visited.”

Justin Harvey admitted the amount of street racing around the area had gotten to such a peak, that either a street permit to do something, or building a race track were the likely solutions.

“Edelbrock Sick 66 sounds like an epic experience. I have a couple friends that are going to follow along in Sick Ward, so it’ll be a great time.”
